Outdoor Street Basketball

Our social Basketball is so much fun, featuring significantly less formal structure and enforcement of the game's rules. It's a mixed 5-aside league which is perfect for hoops tragics to first-time ballers. Here are a few things you get when you sign up to play Basketball with Urban Rec. Note: This league is played outdoors on all weather courts with portable hoops, Merici College is the only outdoor Basketball venue with suitable lighting. It's not the perfect court but it's the only one available to us here in CBR and it makes for a super fun and social league. P.S. It's not the court in the video
